Kings of Battle - Rumor Round-Up and Discussion (Part 3)

I know it’s a joke, it’s funny you took it that seriously.

The Leopard is the only piece of heavy equipment that Germany is good at anyways.

Successfull on the market yes.

But people usually immediatly go for the German propaganda like everything German build is top notch without problem.

And this does not mean the Leclercs are inferior to the Leo.

And then there is the Swiss Hunter…
What do you think were Mirage IIIS/RS will go?

thats true, that being said germany realy didnt go much into the defense export market, sth that rheinmetall hopefully will be changing, sadly gajin did show that rheinmetall vehicles wont necesarily sadly go to german

Leclercs in my opinion are only below modern equipment like the K2 and Type 10. It’s simply so expensive that it’s unsustainable for large scale procurement.

Can we just finally get the angry night in bed so we can both get the EMBT going?

And Germany lost both WWs, but you don’t see people making fun of them or their gear like they do for France…

There is one good song:

The White Army and the Black Baron
Are preparing to restore to us the Tsar’s throne,
But from the taiga to the British seas
Red Army is the strongest of all!

Hmmmm)

MGCS gonna be easy.

130mm gun for Germany.
140mm for France.

Not the same tank x)

eh you mean the MGCS , EMBT was the show of collaboration with leo chassis and a leclerc turret, i hope it starts soon, germany already started another tank project together with italy, sweden and spain, and decided to take in france for now as well, but the french needs to stop bein ecentrique with their stuff

My bad, I occasionally get them mixed up.
Last I knew Italy, Spain, and Netherlands were signing onto MGCS rather then a possible second development. The money into the KNDS merger would have been a waste if it is.

Haven’t we had radar locking for awhile now ?

What 's new abt this ?

as far as i am aware the contracts with them were being done seperatly at first including the integration of Leopard, SAAB and the spanish company whose name i always forget. Germany was ready to completly start a new one since collaboration with france isnt going anywhere

Bearing in mind the other items on that list, maybe for naval? Or prehaps its actually meant to be for something like Sonar lock but just called it radar to be lazy?

i never said that, i am saying a new cannon system maybe shouldnt be tested on the new tank system, getting that cannon realy ready might postpone development even further

I just read, the contracts were done collaboratively with France and Germany.

Rheinmetall isn’t even the best. They’re just good at lobbying, which is why the MGCS is so difficult. They shouldn’t even be in the program as a consultant. The Leclerc cannon was the best until Rheinmetall finally decided to make a L/55 gun.

The only other things here in the gui.hud file w/ the name " radar " are the specifics of iconography on the minimap( which is called “radar” internally - confusing I know ).

I can’t really tell if this is an all-new control, or something already in use.

well that is pretty much what happend with the inclusion of italy, sweden and spain. They all are leopard users and need the same of the tank system while france is the outlier

Okay, I’ll translate it for you.
It was at this time that Allied forces landed on Kiska Island. In response to the two dogs left behind by the Japanese, the Allies sent 34,000 troops, three battleships, and two cruisers. As a result, 122 people were killed, 191 were missing, and one destroyer was severely damaged. Additionally, plague vaccines were consumed in large quantities.
The Allies called it “Operation Cottage.”
It would be faster to check the Wiki for details.

somehow any article leaves out france

yes until rheinmetall made /released the better cannon which became the standard cannon for many nations
